  1. Dear all,

    Does anyone have an idea which bike will be the best investment to buy at the moment?
    I've an option for an in nearly new condition Sport 1000S (2009) or a well maintained 888SP5 from 1993. I will occasionally drive the bike in nice wheather conditions.
    The asking price of the 888 is 28K and for the Sport 13K.
    I think the 888SP5 is on it's highest point right now for the future and the prices for the Sport will rise the coming years. But that's my opinion........
     
  2. The best investments are when someone leaves you something of value in their will or perhaps you come across a very, very cheap vehicle or property for that matter that fills up the bank account.

    My personal choice would be the triple eight.

  3. The Sport 1000s would be my choice, I don't see those losing money if looked after

  5. It really depends what you want from an investment, if you are looking for profit I would steer clear of vehicles. sweet talk your local Patek dealer and buy a Nautilus. You cant fail, if you get one
     
  6. That's clear ! :)
